MONEY - MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. r There is little that is new to report in connection With the money market. No one who can wait and see the result of the Bank Court on Thursday next will bring forward their bills for negotiation, be cause it is very probable that the rate for discount will be reduced one per cent. The market, there fore, remains exceedingly quiet, although the brokers, who have very large sums lying idle, are even willing to negotiate business in short dated securities at 8 per cent. The price for three months' Paper has declined to 8 and 81 per cent. ; but for all these concessions tLe public can only be induced to part, with these securities for which they require immediate cash. A further sum of £20,000 in gold was taken into the Bank yesterday. Alessrs D ovey , B en j am i n , an d C o ., connec t e d with the trade of Brazil, have suspended payment. The failure is stated to have been caused through the late mercantile disturbance at Rio, and the assets, at is believed, will prove to be considerable, and the loss therefore entailed upon the estate small. Sub. joined is a copy of the letter sent to the creditors:— 6, Crosby-square, London, Nov. 7, 1864. It is with deep regret we inform you that we have been compelled to suspend our payments. We had hoped, by the Brazilian mail just arrived, we should have received such in formation as would have obviated the necessity cf our taking this Stop ; that, however, not being the case, regard for the interests of our creditors leaves us no other alternative. We have accordingly placed our affairs in the hands of Messr s Quilter, Ball,ad Co., who will investigate them, and report tha result to our creditors at a meeting, which will be convened with all convenient despatch. We never theless still entertain the hope that our suspension will be but temporary. We are your most obedient servants, (Signed) DOVEY, BENJAMIN ; AND CO. During the last few days there has not been Much animation in the Foreign and Colonial Pro duce Markets. Sugar has been dealt in to a fair extent, at late rates. For coffee there has been only a moderate demand at about previous rates, While tea, rice, saltpetre, and tallow have remained dull ) Without any material change to report in value. Two O'CLOCK.

Her Royal Highness Princess Louise went out, attended by Madlle. B.uer. Her Royal Highness Princess Helena rode in the Riding School. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, attended by Colonel the Hon, J. Macdonald, arrived at the Castle last evening, and accompanied the Duchess of Cambridge to London this morning. The Duchess of Cambridge attended Divine ser vice at St. George's Chapel yesterday afternoon. Her Royal Highness, attended by Lady Geraldine Somerset and Lieutenant-Colonel C.ifton, left the Castle this morning for London. E irl Granville also left the Castle. Return of the Prince and Princess of Wales. The Royal yacht Osborne, Commander George H. K. Bower, having the Royal standard flying at the main, made her appearance off Woolwich Arse nal yesterday, at a quarter before two p.m., having on boird the Prince and Princess of Wales and suite on their return to England. The Osborne sailed from Antwerp at noon ou Sunday, and, with the exception of a blight gale which rose soon after midnight, the passage was calm and favourable. The yacht arrived and anchored off the Girder Light, near Ramsgate, at half-past two yesterday morning, and awaited the mid-day tide to proceed up the river. A notice to that effect was tele graphed to the authorities at Woolwich from Capt. Bower at an early hour in the morning. Captain Gordon, C. 8., superintendent of military stores, then gave orders for the preparation of the T pier, so that a landing might be made with comfort at low tide. The arrangements were admirably exe cuted, the lower platform steps and pier throughout being decorated with bunting and carpeted with clean tent cloths. The tide had begun to ebb, and the yacht, assisted by a couple of tugs from the dockyard, succeeded, after some little delay, in turning and facing the stream, and was brought up close alongside the pier. Prince Arthur, who had ridden down from the Ranger's house in Green wich Park (attended by Major Elphinstone, R.A.), then stepped on board and spent a few minutes with the Prince and Princess previously to their coming on deck. On their +appearance soon after at the head of the gang way they were received by General Warde, commanding the garrison, attended by his aidesde. camp, Captain Williams ; Major Ord, Acting. Major of Brigade ; Captain Nangle, Deputy-Assis tant- Quartermasters General ; Commodore Dunlop, C. 8., and his secretary, Mr. Ponsonby ; Capt. Gor don, Superintendent of the Store Department ; Lieutenant-Colonel Clerk,Lieutenant-Colonel Shaw, and Captain Boyle, euperiutending officers of the Royal Carriage-square; Capt. Majendie, Instruc tor Royal Laboratories, and cffieers in full dress uniforms. Their Royal Highnesses both shook hands cordially with General Wards, and hav ing remained some minutes in conversation on the main deck of the ship, they were escorted by the cfficers above named to their carriages at the entrance to the pier. Both the Prince and Princess appeared in excellent health,and graciously acknow ledged the salutations of numbers of spectators who had assembled on the landinpplace. A Royal salute was fired from the flagship Fisgard on the Osborne's being sighted in the offing at Woolwich, and the Royal standard was hoisted on the arsenal flagstaff, but no other demonstrations were observed in cense qnence of an official order from the War Department desiring that the reception should be "as quiet as possible" by the Prince's special desire. They were attended by Mrs, Grey, Lieut.*General Knollys, Colonel Keppel, and D. Minter (Inspector. General of Hospitals and Fleets), and a large number of ser vants. Their Royal Highnesses, accompanied by Mrs. Grey, left Woolwich in the first carriage, and drove direct to London, and the remainder followed:; the luggage being conveyed in a couple of spacious fourgons. The Osborne is under orders to replenish with fuel at the dockyard and afterwards proceed to Portsmouth. 95 100 85 90 102 104 1021 1(.3 19 20 81 91 70 73 60 42 64 66 55 67 52 54 46 50 29 31 27 29 102 i 1031 pr 4p pr 4p 100 ;01 9i 91 11} It PO 92 77 61 d 101 JO, 94 96 88 90 9 Cl 3 6 80 83 1001 1011 1001 1016 id ip 1001 1 loli 1,5 67 481 I 136 } 153 j 2 761 51 1156 / 69 81 1011 115 k I 1351 4 100 991 1201 1301 f 29i [l9 g 19 114 651 61 641 4 1112 12 112 p 78 i 39 7 Q b7l 61 Business dons 102 103 21 3i 'IIIE SI3N, LOIN DON, TUESDAY EVEINiNG, 'NOVEMBER 8, 1861. Princess Louis of Hesse. The following is the latest bulletin issued re specting the Princess Alice : " Her Royal Highness the Princess Louis is now completely convalescent, awl, a 5 well as the young princess, is in good health. No more daily bulle tins will now be issued. " Dr. PRIESTLEY. " Dr. WEBER. " Darmstadt, Nov. 4, 1864." A communication, dated on Saturday last, con• firms this official announcement, and states that the princess had passed a good night. Her royal highness had received visits from the Prince and Princess of Wales, on their way through Germany ; and from Prince Alfred, who had tra velled to Darmstadt from Bonn, where he is at pre sent residing for the purpose of completing his studies. Foreign Courts. BERLIN, Nov. 6. Early yesterday morning the King of Prussia, accom panied by the Emperor of Russia, left Berlin by special train for the put pose ct hunting in the Letzling Forest, The Grand Duke of Weimar, Princes Charles and Albert of Prussia, Prince Augustus of Wurtemberg, the Duke of Ujest, Prince Bogielav Radziwill, Field.. Marshal on Wrangel, M. Bismarck, the Minister of War, and other Ministers also travelled by the train and took part in the sports. The royal and imperial party returned this even ing, and at ten o'clock the Emperor of Russia and the Grand Duke Constantine left Berlin by special train on the Lower Silisian Railway for St. Petersburg. The King, the princes, and the members of the Russian Embassy were present at his Majesty's departure. Prince Gortschakoff, who had had several conferences with M. Bismarck, re turned to St. Petersburg on the previous day. VIENNA, Nov. 3. The Augsburg Gazette states that the departure of Lord Bloomfield from Vienna, on three months' leave of absence, during the late political crisis, has given rise to much astonishment. The departure was so sudden that a mem ber of the English embassy, at Munich, was telegraphed Mr to take charge of affairs, as the first secretary at Vienna was ill. The well known cause of his lordship's hasty de parture, hcwever, was the l conditicn of Lady Bloomfield, who, it is stated, was suffering frcm a chest complaint.

The opening meeting of the department of Jurisprudence and Amendment of the Law was held last night at the office of the society, 1, Adam-street, Adelphi. The chair was taken by the Right Hon. Lord Brougham, and on his right sat M. Berryer, the distinguished French advocate, and M. Desmarest, batonnier of the French bar. Among those present we observed the Attorney• General, Sir F. Kelly, M,P., Q C.; Sir P. Cochrane, Judge of Gibraltar; S r Eardley Wilmot, Mr Daniell, Q C., Mr Forsyth, Mr D. Lee, the Right Hon. the Judge-Advocate, Sergeant Pulling, Sergeant Burke, Sergeant A kinson, Sergeant Parry, Str geant Simm, Mr Neat°, M.P., the Hon. G. Denman, the Hon, D. Campbell, W. 'lrma, Efq., J. Parkes, Et3s, Mr Macqueer, &0., The entry of the two illustrious strangers was bailed with warm applause. Mr G. . HASTINGS, general secretary, then read an address from the standing committee, which in the first in stance alluded to the able address of Sir William Erle, Chief Justice cf the Common Pleas, at the last meeting of the association, held at ,York in September last, upon the present condi ion of English law, especially the absence of a digest cf recorded decisions by the different equity and common law courts. It refer' ed to the evils which at present an e from the want of an organisation of ,the profession throughout the country, and the want of authority to cor rect the evils and irregularities which arise on various occa sions. The patent law was next alluded to, and it suggested that patent cases should be tried without a jury, but with the aid of scientific men. The bankrupt law was next brought under consideration, and it was said that it now gave great dissatisfaction to the mercantile community, and referred to the opinion given by the committee which sat on the subject during the last session of Parliament, The in quiry was to be renewed in the next session, when it was hoped the difficulties surrounding the question would be re moved. The report, in conclusion, stated the present meet ing was called a week earlier than usual in order to have the honour of receiving their two distinguished visitors—one of whom was the most illustrious advocate of the French bar, and the other the official head of that bar. (Cheers.) The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, in moving that the report be received and printed, said it called attention to many sub jects of the greatest interest and importance, and in a manner which would recommend them to the serious consideration of all who were called upon to deal with them practically. On this occasion he could not, of course, avoid giving expression to his own feel ings, and the feelings of those around him, as to the in teresting circumstance which led to the assemblage of the members being so large. They certainly hoped to show 91. Berryer to-morrow that the English bar was more numerous than anybody that could bo contained in that room, which was devoted only to the deliberations, in a private way, of a society whose object was the amendment of the law. He should not be surprised if M. Berryer saw one of the finest and most ancient of the halls in the metro polis as well filled to-morrow night by members of the bar as now was that room to which many were unable to ob tain admittance. He believed he expressed the unanimous feeling of the profession when he said they were proud to see him, proud to honour him, and felt highly honoured by his presence. (Cheers.) said it was im • the motion, in meeting on pos S s i i r b F le . f li or m. h L ial Y, t i o n e s x o p e r o e n s d s in h g is such an occasion by far the most illustrious member of the bar of France known to the present generation—in seeing an individual who being a native of that country in which great changes had taken place within the memory of all of us—in its Government, in its constitution, and in its des tiny—had ever remained faithful to the purest principles of liberty, and to the independence of the bar and the people. (Cheers) They also saw before them a very eminent and able member of the French bar—one who had by the members of his profession been elected to the high and honourable office of batonnier of the bar of France, M. Desmarest, whose reputation was not only good and brilliant in his own country, but had spread throughout Europe and the world. Ho had come amongst thaw to show his appreciation of the bar of England—it was not the first time—and to declare, as be hoped he would have an opportunity of doing to .morrow, that amongst the members of the English bar and the bgr of France, as well as of every bar throughout Europe, the principles of liberty and independence prevailed—that there was so substantial difference of opinion between them, and that they were all united together by a spirit of fraternity. He therefore re joiced that, under the presidency of their illustrious leader, Lord Brougham, they should once, at least, in his great career be honoured by the presence of such eminent per sonages. The hon. and learned gentleman then spoke in terms of praise of the address of Sir J. Wilde at York, and said they could not hope for any success in the codification of the law until they had settled upon some satisfactory principle for the complete consolidation of the statutes. He expressed himself in favour of allowing the counsel for the defence in ctiminal csses to eum up the evidence, and of other reforms in the law which he hoped would soon be carried into effect. After a few words from Mr. HEAnidot, M.P., Lord BROUGHAM quite agreed with the Attorney-General that it was not to be expected he should express opinions on that occasion upon the various points in the address of the association. indeed, no opinions were expressed in the ad dress, it being simply a statement of the different subjects w which required consideration ; and he doubted hether any one would question that they did require consideration. He was struck with one or two things, and partially the changes in the decisions of the courts and the authority of the de cisions. He well remembered a most distinguished gentle man answering a question of his—whether the case of Thompson v. Jackson was now reckoned an authority. His answer was, that it was a good authority in every case in which the plaintiff's name was Thompson and the defend ant's name was Jackson, but tha, , , it would not go much farther. (Laughter.) Something was said about the import tint attempt repeatedly made to extend the measure allow ing the admission of the parties to give evidence in civil cases to criminal cases, where the party tendered himself and wished to be examined, and where, of course, he would be subjected to a sifting cross-examination. That any one should be compelled to be cross-examined, and particu larly cross-examined by a judge with all the information before him, and with every other means for cress-examina tion, as in Franco—and this was one of the very worst parts of the French criminal procedure—to any provision of that kind he would be strenuously oprosed ; but he thought the accused in a criminal case might be examined under the circumstances he had mentioned. Tho noble lord concluded by expressing his pleasure at the meeting being attended by he distinguished visitors who had honoured them with their presence. The motion for the adoption of the report was then una nimou.ly agreed to. M. BERRYER (who spoke in French, and was loudly cheered) said he was much indebted to Lord Brougham for h av ing introduced him to such an assembly, and that he had listened with admiration—and even with a certain jea lousy—to tho discussion that had taken place upon the amendment of the law. He concluded by claiming the honour of becoming a member of the association, (Cheers.) AL DzaatAnEsT, who Was a : 5O w armly greeted, said he hoped to-morrow to address another assembly in his own language; but he asked permission, in the familiar h a d reasons for doing so. H e confessed he was afraid to mee ting of that eveni ng , to speak a littl e E ng li s h. H e speak French by the side of his illustrious neighbour—the comparison in their native language would be too dan gerous. Laughter.) He should not, however, escape that dange( to-morrow ; but he was perfectly resolved to be beaten then. (Laughter,) But that night ho profited by their indulgence ; and as ho did not speak in his native lan -1 guage he had a chance of not being completely understood by that most dangerous sweetness which could cross-exa mine him it he spoke in French, (Laughter.) Among the things which Sir Fil zroy Kelly had said, what particularly touched him was his allusion to the international sympathy e accepted that, f or the feeling was in his w hi c h existed between the member s o f th e b ar i n diff eren t he pin countries.ta a r. , S tay, olmlie y e ars ago ho con versed upon that feeling in Spain, and other countries of Europe where he had me awmasemthbeerunoifficiat unification travelled, When ho had the good chance to come to Eng land he met this society, under thbetadanibnaleberu,drgirhe,otainond London.

CAPTURE OF A GANG OF TITTERERS OF COUNTERFEIT COIN.-Wm. Bolter, of Thrawl-street, Spitalfields, shoe maker; Wm. Richardson, of Dean-street, Fetter-lane, shoemaker; and John Byrne, of Harp-court, Farringdon street, who described himself as a "professional singer," were charged before Mr Tyrwhitt with conspiring together and knowingly uttering a counterfeit half-crown piece to Mr Wm. Darlington, of the Golden Lion, 42, Wardour street, Soho; also with uttering a counterfeit half-crown piece to Mrs Maria Jackson, wife of Mr Jackson, of the Crown, 356, Oxford-street ; and with uttering another counterfeit half•crown piece to Mr Braddick, 422, Oxford street. Mr Darlington said—Last night a little before 6 o'clock the prisoners came into my house and called for half a quar tern of gin. Bolter threw down a half-crown piece, and I gave him the change, 2s 31d. Richardson took out his pocket-book and said he had an appointment with a gentle mad. I then looked at the coin, and finding it was a coun terfeit, I said, "You had better give me change back as the coin is counterfeit." Bolter gave me back the change, but said he had more change, and he did not want to change a sovereign. Richardson said ho had 21d, and gave it to me, and the prisoners then left, taking the counterfeit half-crown with them, but which I had marked. I followed them into Oxford-street, where they partel and: joined again under the portico of the Pantheon. I then saw a constable and told him what I had seen, and directly after the prisoners went into another publichouse, and on finding that they had passed the coun terfeit halt•crown there, they were directly taken into custody. Mrs Maria Jackson said—Richardson and Bolter came into our house yesterday evening, and Bolter called for half a quar tern of gin. I served them, and Richardson gave me a half-crown piece, and I gave him the change, not suspecting the coin was bad. As soon as the prisoners left Mr Darlington came in and spoke to mc. and I then found the coin was bad. Bolter had been in the house a Second time, and passed a counterfeit two shilling piece to the barmaid in payment of half a quartern of gin. Mr Braddick said—Yesterday evening about eight Bolter came into my shop and took a loaf out of the window and tendered me a half-crown piece in payment. Just as I was giving Bolter change Richardson came in and took off my attention, and having been ill for a long time I was off my gnard. I put the coin in the till, and directly the prisoners left I found it was bad. Joseph Smith, 327 A, proved following and watching the prisoners for some time, accompanied by Mr Darling ton, and subsequently, with Pratt, 311 A, taking them into custody. Pratt, 311 A, said on searching Byrne ho found a coun• terfeit half-crown in his possession. Mr Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoners for the attontance of the Mint authorities. THAMES. A MISTAKE.—A poor and decent woman, who was much agitated, and who gave the name of Anne Frances Mackenzie, was brought before Mr Paget, charged with being drunk and incapable of taking care of herself. A police-constable, No. 181 K, stated that at two o'clock this morning he found the prisoner stretched on the ground in Sutton-street, St. George-in-the• East. She was quite insensible, and he concluded she was dead drunk, and con veyed her to th o station-house. She continued cold and senseless. She was put before the fire and warmed, and the Inspector and himself chafed her hands and revived her. She had two or three fits, and the divisional surgeon of police was hastily summoned, who prescribed for her, and said she was not intoxicated, but ill, and subject to epileptic fits. He ordered her removal to the workhouse, and she had just left there to answer the charge— Mr Paget—Not of drunkenness. She was not drunk. No, Sir, it was a -mistake. She was treated kindly at the station-house, and we paid her every attention. Mr Paget—l am glad to hear it. It is a very natural mistake indeed. She can go back to the workhouse. Witness—She has a home to go to. She is a very respect able woman and works in a pickling warehouse. The prisoner —I am subject to fits. lam very glad he did find me. Mr Paget—lt was very fortunate for you the policeman did finl you. You ought to be much obliged to him. The prisoner then left the court. The Yarmouth Beachmen and the Lifeboat. The following communication has been addressed by the secretary of the National Lifeboat Institution to a contem porary, in reply to some comments by it on the recent dis creditable conduct of the Yarmouth beachmen in refusing to go cff in the lifeboat to the rescue of the crew of the wrecked steamer Ontario on the Hasborough Sands : As you invite, by your interrogatives, some replies on the system of management of the lifeboats at Yarmouth, I trust you will insert the following remarks on that subject. The lifeboat system which has hitherto prevailed there has been rather peculiar, There are, I believe, at that port between 200 and 300 beachmen, These are divided into six or seven companies, each company comprising from 30 to 40 men. These companies are banded together in some thing like a union, so that one company cannot undertake to work the lifeboat without the sanction of the rest. Hitherto the practice has been that one company under takes to work the lifeboat during a year, at the end of which period the boats are shifted to the charge of another company. Again, when the lifeboats are launched to the help of a shipwrecked crew the men who have actually gone off in the lifeboat are compelled, by their own private rules, to share their reward with those " who have tarried at home to divide the spoil." It is clear, therefore, that there can be no great induce ment among men so situated for individual exertion or risk of life in cases of shipwreck. As the Young company had undertaken to work the life •teat for a year, Mr Butcher, the local honorary secretary of the institution, had a reasonable right to expect that the beachmen would, at his direction, man the lifeboat on the 19th ult., and particularly as the men had never expressed to him any dissatisfaction with the institution. The question, thed, naturally arises, can such a state of things be remedied ? It can only bo brought about by the good sense of the beachmen themselves ; and it is hoped that on further consideration by the parent and branch Lifeboat Institutions a better plan than that which has hitherto ob tained at Yarmouth for manning the lifeboats will be adopted. Indeed, two of the companies have already con sented constantly to work ithe small surf lifeboat, which is intended to render assistance to the crows of vessels wrecked close to the shore. But the large littlo4t, 40ft long, is exclusively employed for sailing, and is nearly unmanageable in rough weather under oars. She is engaged to go off to the rescue of the crews of vessels wrecked on the numerous outlying sand banks, some of which are many miles from Yarmouth. In 1857 the two Yarmouth lifeboats were brought into connexior. with this institution. Since then the large life boat has saved six lives from the brig Zephyr, of Whitby. The boat was towed out by a steamer. It was a noble ser vice, and the Yarmouth beachmen showed then what they could do in such cases. For that service the lifeboat's crew received from the institution £23, and £2O was also given to the steamer. This same lifeboat has also gone off since 1857 to 13 other vessels in distress, but the services of the boat on these occasions were happily not required, because the vessels had either got out of danger or their crews had been rescued by other means. For these latter services the men received altogether from the National Lifeboat Institu•• tion £l4l 10s Gd. Again, it should be stated that during the past six years their small surf lifeboat has saved 26 shipwrecked persons, and that fur these and other services the institution has paid the men £B6 16s. In conclusion, I trust you will allow mo to add a few words on the general system of management on the coast of this society's lifeboats. With the exception of those at one or two places, our boatmen and fishermen, bo it said to their great credit, are ever ready in cases of emergency to man the lifeboats of the institution, It is true that the lifeboats are the first of their class, that their crews have the utmost confidence in their qualities, and that, in addition to the inexpressible satisfaction of aiding to save a fellow-creature from a pre mature death, the crows are new certain of a stipulated amount for their laudable services. Their pecuniary rewards for such services consist of 108 to each man comprising the lifeboat's crew for day service, and 20s per man for night duty, those rewards being totally irrespective of the num ber of lives saved as you supposed. Indeed, it occasionally happens that the lifeboat puts off sometimes during a midnight storm to a vessel which was showing signals of distress. By the time the lifeboat has arrived at the spot the vessel has got out of danger. The lifeboat's crew are, of coarse, paid precisely the same as if their boat had returned freighted with a shipwrecked crow. In the report of the meeting of this institution in the news papers of this day it wiil be seen that the crew of the Teign. mouth lifeboat received £l3 for saving one man. On the recommendation of the local committee the lifeboat crows are paid double the amount of the usual scale if they incur extraordinary risk or exposure, either in saving or attempt ing to save life ; and in the event of a fatal accident occur ring to a lifoboatman it has been the practice for the insti tution immediately to undertake to make temporary provi sion for his widow or those dependent on him. As soon as the return of the service is received at the institution a check to pay the men is usually sent off by that night's pest. Altogether the system of manning the society's lifeboats has hitherto worked adtkirably on the coast, the men thoroughly understanding the nature of their implied con tract with the institution. Last year the boat swero manned on all by about 6,000 men, and providentially not a life was lost from them. Wherever a lifeboat has been established the object of the National Lifeboat Institution is by means of the quarterly exercise of the boat, to accustom the ablest boatmen or fishermen of the place to its use in oases of shipwreck. These aro all volunteers, for it would be absolutely imprac ticable to keep throughout the year so largo a body of men in the permanent pay of any charitable institution, in addi tion to the fact that in the event of any member of a perma nent paid crew on an emergency being absent from illness, or any other cause, it would perhaps bo difficult to supply his placo.—l am, Sir, your obedient servant, RICHARD LEWIS, Secretary, Royal National Lifeboat Institution.

REMOVAL OF.THE GREAT EXHIBITION BUILDING. •—The remaining half of the Albert Tower, operated upon on Saturday has since fallen by the force of its own gravity. Ytaterday some further charges of gunpowder and gun cotton were fired into the foundaions of the tower, which on Saturday resisted displacement, with the view of gradually weakening and undermining it at the base. Owing to tae close proximity of a whole terraee of inhabited houses in the Cromwell-road, immediately facing, this portion of the ex perimental operations and removal has to be carried out with extreme care and circumspection, the distance between the terrace and the tower extending only over the flume. diate roadway of some 40ft.

When the doc trine of homoeopathy was first introduced into this country, there Were to be obt tined no Freparations of cocoa either at— tractive to the taste or acceptable to the stomach ; the nut was either supplied La the crude state or to unskilfully manufactured as to obtain little notice. J. Ep[ s, of London, Homoeopathic Chemist, was induced in the year 1819 to turn his attention to this subject, and at length he succeeded, with the assistance of elaborate machinery, in being the firzt to produce au article puts in its composition, and so refined by the perfect fituratioa it rczeives in the process it passes thro..gli, as to be most acceptable to the delicate stomach. For general use Epps's Cocoa is distinguished as an invigo rating, grateful breakfast beverage, possessing, a most deli cious aroma. Dr. in his wo.k "Adulteration of Food," says —" ocaa con this a gre.it variety of important nutritive principles every ingredient necessary to the growth and sustenance of the body." Again: "As a nutri tive, cocoa stands very much higher than e:ther coffee cr tea." Directions—Two teaspoonfuls of the powder in a breakfast cup, filled up with boiling water or milk.
